4. (10 points) A machine has the first cost of $60K. The net annual savings (which depends on the volume of throughput) and the salvage value at the end of its 8-year economic life (which depends on the progress in related technology) are given below: Volume of throughput High Medium Low Probability 0.3 0.6 0.1 Annual Savings AS $30K $20K $10K Rate of technological progress Incremental Revolutionary 0.75 0.25 $9K $3K Probability Salvage S Assume that the progress in technology and the level of throughput volume are independent, and MARR is 10% a) Write the probability distribution of EAW, then compute the expected EAW, the standard deviation of EAW and the probability the there will be a loss in this investment.
